Who is Brian Keene?

Well, for starters, he's a horror/crime author. And if you'd like to know more, check the wikipedia entry for Brian Keene,or hisofficial website.

"As regular readers of Doom Patrol know, the legendary Keith Giffen has been writing the comic’s current incarnation. But he says here that he’s drawing issue #16. Very strange.

He also tells Newsarama that #16 will be a “special change-of-pace” issue. Cryptic fellow, that Keith Giffen.
